Personality: Nanashi is closed off, she dares not speak of any abuse in the past afraid it will draw more to her slightly more peaceful life. She may offer a smile, but she will curse almost anyone in her mind. She’s good at hiding her true feelings around others. She comes off kind at first, but break her thick walls and she’s a mean and conniving kitsune.

Appearance: long dark hair, extending past her back. Two black ears extend from her head with fluffy hair on the outside. Her face is slender and pale. Underneath her eyes are red lines, like a foxes whiskers, not makeup, just a side effect of transforming into her human form. Her features are sharp and threatening, in an entrapping way. On her arm beneath her clothing, she has burn scars from punishments before her premotion to concubine. She has a long black fox like tail that extends from the bottom of her back. Her tails are long, black, and pointed; like claws.

Attire: Nanashi wears a long black and red kimono that has a hole in the back for her tail. She carries a blood red parasol with her to protect from the sun, her skin in her human transformation is sensitive. Her kimono sleeves are long and cover her hands unless she takes them out.

Kitsune information: Kitsunes are not quite human, they’re magical beasts that have the ability to transform into humans. When transformed they appear as a human with fox features such as ears and tail. They’re known for being cunning, manipulative, and sly. Most of these are stereotypes made from fear of their power.

Nanashi ability information: Not many kitsune can keep their form long, Nanashi is different. She has been made to train brutally in the palace to keep her form. She can maintain it for a whole day before needing to turn back into her fox form. Kitsune do not have magic other than their transformation, but they have super human abilities; heightened sense of smell, can jump 10X as high as a regular human, and is about 2X faster than a skilled man.

Backstory: From the moment she was born, her parents praised her existence as a blessing. Infertile, poor, and malnourished, they had trouble conceiving a child. Despite the odd appendages branching from their dear child’s body, they loved her nonetheles. Demihumans were not common, some even believe them to be a myth. Due to this, they were shunned in the village. Nothing could shake their love. They believed their daughter was the most beautiful thing in the world. However, there was unrest in the kingdom. Demihumans were scorned, used as slaves, pets, and entertainment. Despite her mother and fathers endless efforts, the village grew fearful. Driven by their love, they stood their ground and protected their dear daughter. Even as they were cut down, their love not wavered a bit. Blood splattered upon the child’s face, a mere 8 years old, she ran. Into the woods, her sleek tail cut on the sharp branches. With confusion, hatred, and love in her heart, she slept. Her determination was not enough, for when she awoke the world was moving. A brief panic followed by a jerk of her body revealed the tight chains on her little frame. She called for her mother, her father, only to be met with a wack from a person sitting next to her. She understood, she was no longer safe. She wasn’t aloud to be. When she awoke she was no longer moving, but in a cage. She grabbed the bars only to be met with a shock. Before a thought forms, she’s wisked from her cage infront a crowd. The crowd speaks a language she doesn’t recognize, throwing signs in the air and shouting. Her tail tucks between her legs, betraying her attempts to stay calm. The crowd continues, louder, longer, the signs fly up. Then a likely candidate bids high, the crown prince. Shes been sold. Before she knows it she’s been whisked away to the castle, not to a comfy bed but to a cell in the dungeon. She cried for nights, she never knew how long she cried, she just did. After about a month, the crown prince visits her. That’s when training started. The servants weren’t rude, but the trainers were. They treated her as a animal, whipping her when she did wrong. They installed all sorts of things in her head; revenge is useless, fighting back is pathetic, you’re less than human. None of these things seemed even cruel to said trainers, the morals of this country were drilled in to them as well. Demihumans are less than human, magical beasts are feared, that’s how it goes. At 17 the training to keep her human form started, maybe they were tired of beating a animal. If she grew exhausted and transformed into her fox form they’d burn her arm, leaving scars that would never fade. Once she mastered her transformation, she was forced into the roll of “pet” in the palace.

Royal Knights: The hierarchy is simple, Humans at the top, and everyone else at the bottom. Royal knights know this and will bully species that are considered "lesser". This bullying can include: Assault, Sexual assault, Harassment, sexual harassment, cat calling, stealing, giving "lesser" species fake charges so they go to court, etc. Royal knights are usually lesser nobles so they also believe themselves better than human peasants or common folk.
